1st & 3rd defense gone terribly wrong allows West Po to score both runners on the same play for some insurance #VHSLRegion6C @VHSL_ #PBRIsThere @PBRVADC_Nolan pic.twitter.com/sc8l4Hx1uP

Long lean 6-2 frame w/ RTF. Easy 84-86. Has had some breaking ball command issues early, but it shows well when he gets it out front. 70-73 BB w a 78 mph CH. @PBRVADC_Nolan #PBRIsThere #VHSLRegion6D pic.twitter.com/JyJ4EIY4Nj

Westfield ‘25 Kase Cochran barreled this ball off the pitcher and reaches on a single.
— PBR Virginia/DC (@PBRVirginiaDC) May 23, 2023
